SoccerTimes front page Maybe it's time to give Alpay a break. Beckham abuse demonstrates nasty nature of European soccer. ... The naked truth about Nike. Mad Brit Diary Roberto Carlos has no match among the world's defenders. (Saturday, October 25, 2003) Is there a finer defender in the world today than Roberto Carlos? The Brazilian ace can defend, tackle hard, blaze up the flanks at amazing speed, hit a good free kick and score amazing goals. He also has the hardest left foot in the game. Italian defender Paolo Maldini, 35, is no longer the player he was. Brazilian Cafu, 33, still plays well. Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand might be the most expensive defender in the world, but Carlos rules. He just keeps on going, and always with a smile. They say at Real Madrid he breezes through training joking and laughing with Ronaldo. He also maybe the most irritating player to play against. Carlos will waste time, but demand his opponents to take kicks quickly, and he spouts his fair share of trash talk. His free kicks are a little overrated David Beckham has a far higher conversion rate but what defensive wall would want to face a Carlos blast. There are many good defenders but few can attack and make overlapping runs like Carlos. The world got to know Brazil's great attacking defender back in June of 1997 in an exhibition tournament, Le Tournoi de France. It was there, in a game against France that the 5-foot-6 dynamo hit what has been called the Greatest Free Kick Ever. Carlos hit the ball with the outside of his left foot. The ball bent like a banana around the French wall and past goalkeeper Fabien Barthez. Since then, most soccer fans have written Carlos down in their best 11 in the world list.

John Haydon: Optimism follows up-and-down ‘97. (Tuesday, January 6, 1998) American soccer was dominated this year by two stories: the United States national team's quest to reach the 1998 World Cup and Major League Soccer's second season. Both the U.S. team and MLS struggled, but ultimately found success. After the Americans earned only a point with a dismal 1-1 tie against Jamaica at Washington’s RFK Stadium in October, many wondered if they would qualify for the finals in France and if coach Steve Sampson was the right man for the job. But Sampson made some shrewd moves, calling up a few veteran players such as Roy Wegerle and sequestering the team for three weeks at Big Bear Mountain in California. The Americans (4-1-5) responded with a scoreless tie at Mexico and a 3-0 win at Canada. Now the tough work begins. The U.S. will face Germany, Yugoslavia and Iran, all formidable opponents, in the first round of the World Cup. On paper, it would seem the Americans are destined to play three games and board a plane leaving France. But upsets are common in soccer and there is much more parity between national teams now because so many international stars compete against one another in Europe's top leagues. Don't forget the surprises in the opening round of the 1994 World Cup, when Ireland upset Italy, Saudi Arabia beat Belgium, and the U.S. defeated Colombia.

Chilavert (right) was suspended for four games for spitting at Roberto Carlos after Paraguay's tempestuous encounter with Brazil - he missed their last two qualifiers and will also be absent from the first two matches in Korea/Japan. His place in goal will be taken by Ricardo Tavarelli or possibly Aldo Bobadilla, both competent custodians but neither of whom convey the charisma and influence of Chilavert. Chilavert's suspension, though, will not be as damaging this time round as it would have been at France '98, where Paraguay deployed a fiercely defensive formation which yielded them three 0-0 draws.

July 18, 2005 (ASN) In an exhibition game played at the Home Depot Center on Monday night, Real Madrid showed exactly why they are considered to be one of - if not the - best teams in the world, as they beat the home-team Galaxy 2-0 while exhibiting skills a long way from the workaday level in MLS. The buzz about the game was evident even while driving on the freeway; an hour and a half before kickoff, traffic was backed up into the slow lane as fans - a large percentage wearing Real Madrid white - poured into the Home Depot Center. The game had been sold out for days, but there was an occasional hopeful individual wandering through the crowd looking for a spare ticket. The teams entered the field flanked by children whose parents had paid for the privilege via e-Bay auction; in the case of the two accompanying David Beckham, $3625 was the winning bid. The Galaxy attempted to equalize two minutes later, when a scything pass from Jovan Kirovski found Cobi Jones racing alone into the box, but Real goalkeeper Iker Casillas slid into the ball and scooped it off the foot of the US veteran.

Go to: irish sport foreign sport results Ronaldo suffered fit on eve of Brazil's final defeat RONALDO last night revealed that he suffered a fit before Brazil's defeat by France in the World Cup final on Sunday night. The 21-year-old Inter Milan striker's poor showing in yesterday's final at Stade de France has been pinpointed as the reason for an easy 3-0 French victory. But Brazilian television reported last night that Ronaldo had gone into "convulsions" during the night, and that his room-mate, defender Roberto Carlos, had run into the hotel corridor shouting for a doctor. "It was a tremendous scare. We lost the World Cup but I won another cup — my life," Ronaldo said. "I don't remember properly but I went to sleep and then, like the doctor said, it seems I had a fit for 30 or 40 seconds. "I woke up then and my whole body was in pain. But with time the pain got less and I relaxed a bit." He added: "I have never felt so ill and I hope I'll never feel it again."

After a few down years in the early 1990s, both returned to prominence later that decade. And they both pack the financial power to acquire almost any player they desire. Although they compete in different sports and different continents, Real Madrid and the New York Yankees have much in common. But despite their lineup, the Yanks would need to add Alex Rodriguez and Mike Piazza to match Real's star power.
